SMALL BUSINESS TRAINING
We partner with women as they develop the skills, confidence, and resources to launch small businesses, pursue economic opportunity, and invest in the future they envision for themselves and their families.
CREATING OPPORTUNITY
through Small-Business Development
Tirzah’s Small-Business Training equips women impacted by HIV/AIDS, trafficking, poverty, and other injustices with the tools to build sustainable livelihoods. Over two years, participants receive business training, access to savings and loans, and ongoing mentorship. Weekly gatherings foster community and support, while holistic care meets urgent needs. Through Bible study and personal growth, women discover their God-given value and step into confident, purposeful lives.
MEET ANGELINA
“God is not as far as we thought. He hears us and responds to our needs at the appropriate time. Just before my son dropped out of school, God brought this project to life to hold my son there.”
In rural Zimbabwe, many girls leave school early and have limited opportunities to earn an income of their own. Angelina's story could have followed a similar path. Married young and with only a few years of formal education, she carried a dream that felt just out of reach: building a business that could support her family and create a different future for her children.
Growing up on a peanut farm, Angelina learned how to transform peanuts into peanut butter. She knew the skill had value, but lacked the resources and support needed to turn it into a business. Through Tirzah's Small Business Training Program, she received training, mentorship, and the confidence to take the next step.
Today, Angelina runs her own peanut butter business and is generating income for her family. What once felt uncertain now feels possible. Instead of worrying about whether her son will be able to continue his education, she is building a path forward through the work of her own hands.
For Angelina, the impact extends beyond income. Her business has become a source of purpose and hope. She sees new possibilities for her future and is creating opportunities for the next generation to thrive.
